High-Latitude Zonal Jets in the Martian Upper Atmosphere Driven by Non-Orographic Gravity Waves
Jiandong Liu, François Forget, Ehouarn Millour +2
We investigate thermosphere responses to non-orographic gravity waves (GWs) using wind measurements from the Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer onboard the Mars Atmosphere and V…
A Stochastic Parameterization of Non-Orographic Gravity Waves Induced Mixing for Mars Planetary Climate Model
Jiandong Liu, Ehouarn Millour, François Forget +2
This paper presents a formalism of mixing induced by non-orographic gravity waves (GWs) to integrate with the stochastic GWs scheme in the Mars Planetary Climate Model. We derive t…
The effect of near-surface winds on surface temperature and dust transport on Venus
Maxence Lefèvre, Sébastien Lebonnois, Aymeric Spiga +1
The knowledge of the Venus near-surface atmosphere is sparse. Few spacecrafts landed on the surface and measured winds with amplitudes below 1 m/s. The diurnal cycle of the wind am…
An Extremely Elongated Cloud over Arsia Mons Volcano on Mars: II. Mesoscale modeling
Jorge From, :, Jorge Hernández-Bernal +5
In a previous work (Hernández-Bernal et al. 2021) we performed an observational analysis of the Arsia Mons Elongated Cloud (AMEC), which stands out due to its impressive size and…
